The League Defended.

LONDON, August 24.-In the house of
commons last night Mr.. Robertson,
liberal member for Dundee, referring to
the proclaiming Of the Irish National
League, said he had examined the returns
upon which the proclamation wa issued
and found them insufficient. lr. Parnell
called upon the government to prove that
the league had criminal designs. Mr..
Smith, the government leader, said it was
no the governments intention to submit
any additional papers. Lord Harrington
did not know that the government intend
ed to proclaim the league until after the
decision had been reached. As soon as he
learned of the governments intention he
sent a strong remonstrance TO Lord Sails

clamation ill-advised, dangerous and i'm.

The Butte Street Railway.

BUTTE. August 24.-Willard Bennett,
one of the contractors for the Butte street
railway, has made arrangements for the
commencement of work. A gang of men
begun grading this morning. The rails
now here weigh 225,0W pounds and are
sufficient t olay the track as required by
contract. The line from the depot to
Walkerville will be two and a half miles
in len 9Th that to Meaderyille, n and
one half miles. Six thousand ties have
been contracted for, and the larger por-
ton is already delivered Mr.. Bennett
saws: at is our purpose to make all pos
sible haste with the construction OF the
road from the depot to a point on Main
street, in Butte. Horses will be used as
motiye-power until electric generators are
nut in, and when they are in lace and
the wires strung, we will try the feast
bility of the electric motor. This power
is transmitted from a wire suspended over
the track, supported by circuit wires from
poles planted along the street. Should
the test prove satisfactory on the grade
between upper Main street and the depot
and a sufficient reserve Of power be main
tanned. we will have no hesitancy in
adopting the motor on the sleeper grades
between Butte and Walkerviiie." Mr..
Dawson, lately superintendent of the
Montana Union, has been engaged to gu
%perintend the construction OF the street

COMING TO GREAT FALLS.
Samuel Dodd will Establish q Meat
Market in this City.

Great Falls will soon have a new bust
ness man. This will be Sam Dodd of Da-
kota, who will engage in the meat trade
ana keep a large assortment Of provis-
ions in that line. Mr.. Dodd has beencon-
nected with the meat trade several years
and is widely known as an active, ener-
getic man of business. As stated recently,
he has conducted successfully the mail
service of the Manitoba line during the
building of the Manitoba extension. He
has ample opportunity to determine the
merit of all the places from Minot to
Great Falls, and has decidedt TO settle here
in preference to any other place. He is
convinced that Great Falls will, before
long, have a large population and that he
will be able to build up here an extensive
business in the meat trade. He has ample
capital at his command and is well known
amcng the great provision merchants OF
the country. He will leave nothing I'm.
done to maintain the high reputation which
Great Falls has already acquired as s
meat market.

tive conditions as between these terminal
points the same as they were before ths

Gen. w. d. Washburn says: "1fthe Man
tobias policy can be carried out success
fully, the wheat will be carried away from
Minneapolis and the milling interest will
be practically destroyed" The course
pursued BY the Manitoba is regarded as =
defensive measure, caused by the hostile
attitude Of the Minneapolis & Pacific,
which is a Washburn enterprise.

Of Interest to Bankers.

P1rrsBURe, August 24.-Mr. Kapple,
corresponding editor of the american
Banker, says that among the matters to
be DISCUSSED by the convention of bank
ars. which meets here, will be the question
of uniformity in checks and the use OF
safety paper for checks. drafts and other
papers. A most important question will
be some plan whereby the circulation OF
bank currency can be secured by bonds,
which will not bring the question up every
few years. The silver question and the
proposed amendmentto the banking books
for the protection of depositors in Nation
al banks, suggested by Comptroller Tren-
holm, will also claim attention. The con-
vention will also consider the proposed
amendment to the banking law, that
where the president and cashier Of q bank
are directors there shall be four addi-
tional directors, to prevent collision be-
tween the president and cashier. Con-
gress will be asked to amend the Canadian
treaty, so that Ascending %f1nanciers will
not be secure from punishment by cross
ing the border.

Indians Still Warlike.

DENVER, August 2.-No news has yet
been received from Sheriff Randall and
posse Of seventy-fve men who left here
Sunday morning to find the Indians in
dicted for demonstrating. Fears are en-
tertained for their safety. A courier ar
rived a few days ago and reported that a
band of a hundred buck Indians from the
Uintal agency had been seen going the
way towards Colorow's camp on Mill
river. This news was of such startling
character that General Reardon. who is
encamped about twenty-five miles from
here, started out Immediately. 1t is ru,
mored that Chipeta, the widow of Ouray,
the once powerful chief who ruled ove'
the Utes, was killed by the sheriff's party
| at one of the first encounters with the In
dams. If such was the case, it is thought
| serious trouble cannot be avoided.

Frank Hurd's Opinion.

democratic prospects for 's8? Well,
I'm afraid if I told you what | thought
about that it would be 3 case of wish
fathering the thought. Your Republi-
can or your Democrat hopes for party
success and says he believes in it, but as a
matter of fact no one can say. It looks
like Cleveland and Blaine again. There
will be no party opposition to Cleveland
Of moment. He deserves a second term
and he will have the nomination. Sher-
mans Endorsement by Ohio Republicans
was purely nominal and has had no
weight whatever. He may get a majority
of the Ohio delegation when the actual
fight is on. and I think he will, but
Blaine will get q part of the delegation

nsxt morning. we spending the time in
fishing and observing the surrounding
country. Next morning, taking the little
steamer operated by CAPTAIN Kerr, q trip
wa made across the lake, which is twenty
eight miles vide to the Flatheaa river.
From there we ran into the river TO a
place called Bad Rock or the Flathead
river. This stream is rough and rapid and,
while not navigatle, is very picturesque
and full of salmon trout. At this point 1t
proved very pleasant, the weather being
cool. There are many old-timers from
Helena who have taken up ranches near
here under the "homestead act" and are
prospecting; others are devoting their time
and making their living by hunting and
trapping. The deer and bear are plenti
ful. and the fish, which are mostly salmon
trout, weighing from two to twenty-five
pounds, are found in large numbers. The
crops were very fine, particularly wheat
and oats. which reach the height OF six
or seven feet, especially those from the
ranches of VIM. Belllenr, whom addition
to farming makes q speciality Of cattle and
horse raising, for which purpose the ranch
is beautifully situated, having n it several
fine mountain streams and natural springs.
On the ranches of Charles Fredenberg
and Charles Thompson are produced veg
efables of enormous size and ~unexcelled
quality. Yenne Brothers, the weli-known
and popular traders, keep the principal
store of general merchandise on the cas-
side of the valley. They are also interest
ed in some large ranches producing bonn-
iful crops. The principal ranch owners
of the valley are: George W.Lakin, who
:. o3,o 80 1nc&a1ta ~ f1of daefsy,p aF tho
country; Charles Fredenberg and William
Eagan, who Also makes a specially OF rails
ing fne-breed cattle; Squire John Lang,
who is justice of the peace and an old res
ident and owner of la &c tracts of land.
We also met w. r. Mumbrue, Dennis Sui
iivan, James Ward, Hugh st. Clair, VIII
Ritter, who are all prosperous farmers on
the other side of the valley.
"What was most surprising was the very
high grass and fine crops being raised
without any irrigation. The dew that
falls at night is very heavy, which makes
irrigation unnecessary, and is caused by
the numerous small streams. and lakes
which traverse and dot the valley. The
old-time hunter and trapper Fl. p. Jen-
nings, who will be remembered by many
old residents of Helena, was met while
travelling. | saw many parties o n the hills
prospecting for coal and precious metals.
The Flathead river is navigable to Dem
a~rsville, a new I~ostof1ce lately started,
which bears the name of Mr.. Demar. a
large trader in general merchandise, etc.
The river is beautifully bordered with
large trees and brush, which abound with
deer, bear, wild cat, pheasants and all
other game"

MAR0IrIsE DE MOREs.
The Lady Reported to be Seeking
q Divorce Because of the Bad
Temper OF Her Distin-
gnished Husband.

New York special: News comes from
Paris that the wife Of the Marquis de
Mores is preparing to enter suit for d.
vorce against her husband. 1t has been
known to the friends of the family for
soEle time that Marquise de Mores he'd be-
come dissatisfied with her married life.
and they expected she would seek a sep
a~ration. Marqulse de Mores before mar
rage was known as Miss Won Hofu an.
She is the youngest daughter of Baron
Louis A. Won Hoffman, the Wall street
banker, and has an extensive acquaintance
in this city. She has been living in Paris
with her mother for the past four months.
Mr.. Won Hoffman could not be sec to-
day, but a friend, who said he knew all
about the difficulty, stated that the Mar
quise could not stand the temper of her
husband. The latter, he further stated,
had become very parsimonious of late, and
for that cause, as also because of his bad
treatment, the Marquise is anxious to be
a1f01SC&s A&4oS~ l. AhoH Ao NhAA44
say he is far from wealthy. He married
Miss Won Hoffman ON the occasion of a
visit to this country. He went out west
| shortly after and established a town in
Dakota, which he called Medora in
honor of his wife. He ventured into a
number Of schemes, and started the Ma
tional Consumers Meat Company. 1t is
said that he lost a great deal of money,
but those who pretend to know declare
that he could not lose that which he had
not. He sold out his shares in the com
pany, and the manager of the concern,
Grimshaw, had him arrested here on a
civil action for not fulfilling a contract.
The case never came TO trial. The Mar
quis. after his release from prison, went
to Paris to join his wife, who had gone in
advance. Everybody speaks in the high
est terms of the Marquise. Before her
marriage she was a great sportsWoman,
being particularly noted as q fine shot and
